2016 East All-Stars

In my previous blog, I wrote about the Western All-Stars roster. For the East, they look to continue their win streak after an impressive win last year.
The Eastern Conference starters include LeBron James of the Cleveland Cavaliers, Paul George of the Indiana Pacers, Carmelo Anthony of the New York Knicks, Dwyane Wade of the Miami Heat, and Kyle Lowry of the Toronto Raptors.
Lebron James is arguably the best athlete of this generation. He has an incredible basketball IQ and he can defend any position. After a tough loss in last year's NBA Finals, the Cavs looked to rebuild and restart after firing head coach David Blatt due to a blowout loss against the same team who beat them in the Finals, the Warriors. James will look for a little bit of revenge as he will be going head-to-head against three of the Warriors during the All-Star game, with one, Stephen Curry, being a starter.
Paul George has been having a great season so far. After a gruesome injury during the off-season before last year's season, George returned to the Pacers near the end of the season, but it was too late for the Pacers. This season, he looks to turn things around for his team, and will get to have a little fun in this All-Star game.
Carmelo Anthony's team is not doing as great as he would have hoped, but they are definitely improving. However, he has not really been the Knick that many around the world are talking about. A rookie on his team by the name of Kristaps Porzingis is the one making headlines. However, Anthony was still the Knick to be voted in by the fans to the All-Star game, so he has no reason to be concerned.
Dwyane Wade of the Miami Heat will be looking just to have fun in this game. He will be reunited with former teammate LeBron James, and the two will be sure to put on a show for the many fans that will attend the game.
Kyle Lowry is definitely a fan favorite. He will be playing in his own arena, and due to a last-second voting surge, he will be playing as a starter.
Other players for the Eastern Conference All-Stars include Jimmy Butler, DeMar DeRozan, Paul Millsap, Andre Drummond, Chris Bosh, John Wall, and Isaiah Thomas. The team will be coached by newly named Cleveland Cavaliers head coach Tyronn Lue.
